About Me

I started a quilt guild called Beach Border Quilters 17 years ago which is located near Myrtle Beach SC just over the NC border in Calabash. I enjoy doing art quilts and I started fiber art group in January called the Liberated Yoyos. I have been retired for 20 years . I have 5 grandkids ranging from 17 - 29 years of age. Have 3 great grands. I enjoy trying new recipes especially low cal and low fat and low sodium since I am on a restricted diet.

Favorite Crafts

Quilting, sewing, rubber stamping, knitting, reading . Love altered art and just added zentangles to my likes. I also like to use the computer to play games and create cards and other graphics. I have a small home based machine embroidery business so I use the computer to create embroidery designs. I also coordinate our community craft show held each October. I teach quilt classes and love it since I was an elementary teacher early in my career. Don't let this intimidate you cause I love getting all kinds of stuff from other crafters. I also have a large collection of beads and would like to do more beadwork. I love redwork which I usually do by coloring with crayons and then embroiderying with black. I do redwork in all different colors and love the 30's redwork design.

Favorite Music

Motown and musicals like Sound of Music, Dreamgirls, Mama Mia, Dirty Dancing etc

Favorite Books

Gone with the Wind James Patterson Nicolas Sparks Nora Roberts Deborah Macomber vampire romance novels time travel books any books that are in a series

Favs & Collections

I collect GWTW memorabilia, thimbles, penguins and Matroyska doll sets. Mermaids are my passion I also love anything beachy and collect lighthouses stuff. I like oriental things and my favorite colors are blue, green and purple. I also like any bright colors. I love the color combinations of blue and green,blue and white, and purple and turquoise. Can usually find a use for any fabric!

Favorite Television

I love reality shows such as Dancing with the Stars, Amazing Race, and especially Project Runway. I also enjoy all the cooking challenge shows such as Top Chef, Chopped, etc. I enjoy watching old movies especially musicals

Tracking for the Advent Pocket Letter I sent you says they left a notice today. :/ Not sure why they didn't just deliver it..? Phooey, I was hoping you'd get it in time.
